An exaggerated tale of combat where no one was injured has proved injurious to the career of Brian Williams, who was suspended for six-months without pay from his post at the top-rated “NBC Nightly News.”

The swift punishment for Williams comes days after the news anchor announced he was taking a brief break from the anchor chair as a public relations crisis for the network continued to escalate.
